Ok, so do you all agree that the belief in God is irrational? If not, I will continue with my argument. We established that something must be described in order to have a rational belief in it. If you still want to argue that, just say so. I will quote myself again.

No, superpowers wouldn't convert you. You would get them, and you wouldn't be, anybody who claims to ask for miracles and they will be converted, well, it just doesn't work that way. (I'm not particulary eloquent with words, sorry).

Here's my answer, I wouldn't want super powers, but not because it isn't "rational." I wouldn't want them because people with super powers are expected to do stuff with them (like moses freeing the Hebrews or Jesus redeeming manking) and I can barely do what I'm supposed to do as it is. I don't know that I could handle that extra responsibility.

The superpowers thing is a joke. To quote myself, "The point is i won't get superpowers. I won't be converted without a logical reason." It was something like that. Same meaning.

The superpowers thing is a joke. Please read the whole forum. I don't want to keep quoting myself.

Oh, so when you asked "would you want superpowers" you didn't actually mean for anybody to answer that? Hmmm... :tsk:

I'm not going to read the whole forum! It's 151 posts long! I'm just going to answer your question, and you can take it how you want. If you want to disregard it because it actually answered your question, that's fine, but I don't feel like reading 151 posts just so I can see what your underlying game is.

I wasn't sure what people would say. Obviously I was ready for anything. But, when you get down to the base of it, it is still just a joke.

Ah, and then you get mad when I don't get your joke? Maybe you're just not funny...
